Abstract
The first intermediate flare from newly discovered SGR 1935+2154 was detected and localized by four Interplanetary network (IPN) spacecraft on 2015 April 12. Among the observing instruments, only Konus- Wind gamma-ray burst spectrometer (KW) was able to measure high-resolution light curves and multi-channel energy spectra of the flare. We report on the results of temporal and spectral analyses of the KW data, the flare energetics, a search for Quasi-Periodic Oscillations in the light curve, and, finally, discuss the source distance estimate based on the distribution of double blackbody spectral fit parameters
